Doesn't go deep enough! ... doesn't go deep enough! ... what do you mean doesn't go deep enough? I'll have you know that some of those faintest dots in that image are mag 9 according to Cartes du Ciel. Only mag 5/6 indeed!!!!

That does it I'm taking my telescope and going home
Seriously though. If I did manage to capture it what sort of size scale are we talking about here? How big would it appear at the same scale as the image I posted here? Is the tail fairly long?
